MAME Odyssey 2 Software List Artwork File for use with the "bezelprojectSA-Videopac" / "bezelproject-Videopac" bezel packs

This is for MAME and is not compatible with RetroArch.

It assumes that you are emulating MAME's Odyssey2 (videopac software list) games via LaunchBox, with the "Remove file extension and folder path" and "Remove Quotes" settings enabled as required.
It displays per-game bezels, and is for use with either the "bezelprojectSA-Videopac" or the "bezelproject-Videopac" bezels. The bezel images themselves are not included - they're available from the bezelproject.

How to use:
Download the odyssey2_swl.zip and unzip it. Inside is the artwork file odyssey2.zip which contains a multi-view lay file matched to MAME's videopac.xml software name entries.

Move odyssey2.zip to a location within your MAME artwork folder that your mame.ini artpath is aware of. If you already have an odyssey2.zip there, then first either delete it or move it to a safe location outside of MAME.

If you intend to use the system artwork (SA) bezels then drop the 146 game bezels as well as the generic (Magnavox-Odyssey-2.png) bezel that come with the "bezelprojectSA-Videopac" pack into your new odyssey2.zip

If you prefer to use the themed artwork bezels instead then drop the 147 game bezels as well as the generic (Magnavox-Odyssey-2.png) bezel that come with the "bezelproject-Videopac" pack into your new odyssey2.zip

Only the png images are needed, the corresponding cfg files are not.

Any game that passes a view parameter which fails to match (full or partial) with a view name in the lay will use the system's generic bezel.

LaunchBox 13.15 users:
Set your MAME Associated Platforms Default Command-Line Parameters for your Magnavox Odyssey 2 platform as
odyssey2 -view %romfilename% voice -cart2

LaunchBox 13.14 or earlier users:
%romfilename% is not supported, so use
odyssey2 -view %romfile% voice -cart2 %romfile%

Tested using MAME 0.267 with LaunchBox 13.14 and 13.15.

Meow!
